Voter ID: The Key to Saving Freedom in California, Following Wisconsin’s Lead

In an awesome appearance on Fox News’ “My View with Lara Trump,” conservative commentator Benny Johnson laid out a bold vision for reclaiming California from liberal dominance. (Above) “California has the largest Republican population in America, but no voter ID. That’s how Gavin Newsom’s machine survives,” Johnson declared, announcing plans for a “Save California Block Party” with Nicole Shanahan to rally support for a voter ID ballot initiative in 2026.

Requiring just 875,000 signatures to qualify, this measure could force Democrats into a corner they can’t escape, much like the voter ID revolution that transformed Wisconsin’s elections and paved the way for President Trump’s resounding victory. As California grapples with rampant allegations of voter fraud and unchecked illegal immigration, implementing voter ID isn’t just about election integrity—it’s about restoring freedom, empowering conservatives, and dismantling the leftist stranglehold that’s turned the Golden State into a cautionary tale of tyranny. Wisconsin’s story is a blueprint for redemption. For years, the Badger State was plagued by shady election practices, with no voter ID allowing Democrats to manipulate outcomes through lax verification and private funding schemes like “Zuckerbucks.” But in a landmark referendum, Wisconsinites overwhelmingly approved measures to clean up their elections, including stricter ID requirements and bans on outside interference.

As Rep. Kevin Kiley noted, “Yesterday Wisconsin overwhelmingly passed Voter ID. California will be next.” This wasn’t mere symbolism; it directly addressed the fraud that conservatives argue stole the 2020 election from Trump. With voter ID in place, elections became secure, turnout remained robust, and President Trump cruised to victory in 2024, flipping the state red with ease. Fox News highlighted how these reforms neutralized Democrat tactics, ensuring only legal citizens voted and preventing the kind of ballot harvesting that had previously tilted scales. The Washington Times reported that voter ID laws like Wisconsin’s don’t depress turnout, as liberals claim, but instead bolster confidence in the system, with studies showing no negative impact on participation .Breitbart detailed how the conservative push for integrity measures exposed and curtailed fraud, allowing true voter will to prevail. The impact was profound: Wisconsin’s cleaned-up elections not only secured Trump’s win but also safeguarded freedom by protecting against deep state meddling and illegal influences. Newsmax emphasized that these reforms were key to countering the liberal Supreme Court majority’s attempts to redraw maps and rig the game.
